Days after Vice Chancellors of Central universities resolved to hoist the national flag prominently on their campuses, the Government-run Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan (KVS) has directed all its schools to fly the Tricolour on their buildings daily.
The KVS administration has also asked all the principals to ensure that the flag post is positioned at a prominent place during the morning assembly.
Union HRD Minister Smriti Irani is the chairperson of the KVS which runs over a thousand schools in India and abroad.
“You are directed to ensure raising the flag every morning and its lowering before sunset on the buildings of KVs and regional offices,” Additional Commissioner, KVS, UN Khaware said in his letter to the regional offices.
